About
Despite a notable increase in empirical research over the last decade, eating disorders (ED) remain notoriously difficult to treat. Schema therapy offers a way of conceptualising and working with eating disorder symptoms whilst flexibly accommodating and working with broader personality features. This seminar will focus on introducing delegates to methods for integrating ST ideas when working with anorexia nervosa, and bulimia nervosa complicated by other issues such as the presence of Personality Disorder.
Delegates will be introduced to:
1) using mode mapping to formulate complex ED presentations
2) all of the core ST change techniques with discussion around their integration into time-limited ED work.
